To utilize wave energy, we propose a power take-off device mainly composed of a novel buoy and a high-temperature superconducting synchronous reluctance linear generator (HTS-SRLG). We describe the conceptual structure and function of the buoy, which makes use of seawater to provide more power to the HTS-SRLG. Then, we introduce the configuration and the key electrical design process of the HTS-SRLG. Design result of the HTS-SRLG is presented and compared with that of counterparts to demonstrate its advantages in performance and in application. This article is conducted from the viewpoint of promoting the industrial application of HTS machines. The proposed buoy gives an insight of improving the utilizing efficiency of wave energy. And the HTS-SRLG contributes to simplify the generator cooling.

Recognition of specific chromatin modifications by distinct structural domains within "reader" proteins plays a critical role in the maintenance of genomic stability. However, the specific mechanisms involved in this process remain unclear. Here we report that the PHD-Bromo tandem domain of tripartite motif-containing 66 (TRIM66) recognizes the unmodified H3R2-H3K4 and acetylated H3K56. The aberrant deletion of Trim66 results in severe DNA damage and genomic instability in embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Moreover, we find that the recognition of histone modification by TRIM66 is critical for DNA damage repair (DDR) in ESCs. TRIM66 recruits Sirt6 to deacetylate H3K56ac, negatively regulating the level of H3K56ac and facilitating the initiation of DDR. Importantly, Trim66-deficient blastocysts also exhibit higher levels of H3K56ac and DNA damage. Collectively, the present findings indicate the vital role of TRIM66 in DDR in ESCs, establishing the relationship between histone readers and maintenance of genomic stability.

To comprehensively explore the contribution and mechanisms of identified low-threshold bitter substances in Idesia polycarpa var. vestita Diels (I. vestita) fruit, we performed quantification and elucidated their interactions with main bitter taste receptors through molecular docking. The established method for quantifying bitter compounds in I. vestita fruit was validated, yielding satisfactory parameters for linearity, stability, and accuracy. Idescarpin (17.71-101.05 mg/g) and idesin (7.88-77.14 mg/g) were the predominant bitter compounds in terms of content. Taste activity values (TAVs) exceeded 10 for the bitter substances, affirming their pivotal role as major contributors to overall bitterness of I. vestita fruit. Notably, idescarpin with the highest TAV, played a crucial role in generating the bitterness of I. vestita fruit. Hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions were the main driving forces. This study holds potential implications for industrial development of I. vestita fruit by providing novel insights into the mechanism underlying its bitterness formation.

The carburizing process is the key technology to improve the wear properties of cams;however, the influence mechanisms of the carburized depth on the wear reliability of cams are still unclear. In this work, the multi-body dynamic simulation with the AVL_EXCITE TD software and the accelerated wear experiments of the cam-roller pairs were combined to analyze the wear reliability of cams with different carburized depths of 0 mm, 0.8 mm and 1.4 mm. The results indicate that allowable wear depth of the cam is predicted to be 0.916 mm according to the degradation rule of the valve fullness coefficient. The maximum wear failure life of different carburized cams corresponding to the wear reliability of 99% was determined to be 1.0 x 107 cycles, 3.2 x 109 cycles and 3.5 x 109 cycles based on the combination of online detection data and the multi-body dynamics simulation. The relationship model between the wear failure life of the carburized cams and the carburized depth is established, and the optimal carburized layer depth of 1.20 mm is speculated from the model. The present work can provide new clues for improving the wear resistance of mechanical components.

Welding process, as one of the crucial industrial technologies in ship construction, accounts for approximately 70% of the workload and costs account for approximately 40% of the total cost. The existing welding quality prediction methods have hypothetical premises and subjective factors, which cannot meet the dynamic control requirements of intelligent welding for processing quality. Aiming at the low efficiency of quality prediction problems poor timeliness and unpredictability of quality control in ship assembly-welding process, a data and model driven welding quality prediction method is proposed. Firstly, the influence factors of welding quality are analyzed and the correlation mechanism between process parameters and quality is determined. According to the analysis results, a stable and reliable data collection architecture is established. The elements of welding process monitoring are also determined based on the feature dimensionality reduction method. To improve the accuracy of welding quality prediction, the prediction model is constructed by fusing the adaptive simulated annealing, the particle swarm optimization, and the back propagation neural network algorithms. Finally, the effectiveness of the prediction method is verified through 74 sets of plate welding experiments, the prediction accuracy reaches over 90%.

Background Intramuscular fat content is an important index reflecting the quality of mutton, which directly affects the flavor and tenderness of mutton. Livestock and poultry intramuscular fat content is influenced by genetics, nutritional level, and environmental factors. Key regulatory factors play a crucial role in intramuscular fat deposition. However, there is a limited amount of research on the identification and function of key genes involved in intramuscular fat content deposition specifically in sheep. Results Histological differences in the longest dorsal muscle of the small-tailed frigid sheep increased in diameter and decreased in several muscle fibers with increasing monthly age;The intramuscular fat content of the longest dorsal muscle of the small-tailed cold sheep varied with age, with a minimum of 1 month of age, a maximum of 6 months of age, and a minimum of 12 months of age. Transcriptomic sequencing and bioinformatics analysis revealed a large number of differential genes in the longest dorsal muscles of little-tailed billy goats of different months of age, which were enriched in multiple GO entries and KEGG pathways. Among them, the pathway associated with intramuscular fat was the AMPK signaling pathway, and the related genes were PPARGC1A and ADIPOQ;Immunohistochemical studies showed that PPARGC1A and ADIPOQ proteins were expressed in connective tissues, cell membranes, and, to a lesser extent, the cytoplasm of the longest dorsal muscle of the little-tailed frigid sheep;Real-time PCR and Western Blot validation showed that PPARGC1A and ADIPOQ were both expressed in the longest dorsal muscle of the little-tailed frigid sheep at different ages, and there were age differences in the amount of expression. The ADIPOQ gene was negatively correlated with the intramuscular fat content of the longest dorsal muscle, and the PPARGC1A gene was positively correlated with the intramuscular fat content of the longest dorsal muscle;As inferred from the above
